Choose wich resolution / quality to send to the player

I have a slow internett connection at home and it would be great if I could somehow define what quality I want to watch the movie in. This could be set in the extension preferences or maybe it could be an option to add it to the context menu, like "Open in MPV (480)" and "Open in MPV (720p)" etc.

EDIT: Currently it seems like MPV opens the 1080p stream, and VLC 720p. Not sure why.

You can change the default quality mpv should try to open by passing --ytdl-format=bestvideo[height<=?720]+bestaudio/best Change the 720 to whatever resolution you want to stream, Like this pic Mine is also setup to ignore vp9 codec. Archwiki for mpv. Not sure how it would work for vlc since I only use mpv.
